We have overhauled the python build code. You can try CVS copy or wait
for 7.2.
> Hi, I came across a problem while building postgresql 7.1.2 for my
> environment where the default python in my path is not the python to be
> used to deduce the installation directory. While the GNUmakefile works
> correctly, the generated makefile seemed to have problems. I found that
> this patch helps to fix the problem. The patch below is against the latest
> version in cvs.
